About mobile and pattern

For a long time, I have wanted to make a mobile for my youngest son’s cot and with summer all around us, the bees and flowers in the garden became a source of inspiration. I have had such fun with my scrap yarn for this project, and hope you enjoy knitting this project.  The bane og this mobile is Lillebrors uro, which translates to little brothers mobile. 

 

 

Materials

-for a flower you will need approx. 4 g tynn slik mohair and 1 g finull 

-for a bee you will need approx. 5 g tynn silk mohair (2 g black, 2 g yellow and 1 g white)

-one wooden/metal ring or other to use for hanging (sold at most hobby shops) 

-a good and solid thread for hanging
